It would be neat, I think, if the book title (iTunes->Get Info->Info->Name) could optionally have " - Book n of m" appended if the book is part of a series in Calibre.

Incredible would be if there was a way for us to define/override the mapping ourselves using python somehow from within Calibre (like Advanced->Tweaks).


Great iPad integration nevertheless
Take a look at the first post in this thread, in the 'Metadata mapping' section, describing how the plugboard integration will work iTunes in 0.7.23. You'll be able to transform the title, except for "Book n of m", as 'm' is unknown. But you can do 'Book n'.
